4 Claims. (Cl. 229-453) 'i invention relates to bags and has for an 'object to provide a bag having a pair of opposite Walls formed of highly transparent material such as Cellophane and having another pair of opposite Walls formed of less transparent material such as glassine or any ordinary paper.

Other objects and advantages will hereinafter appear.

In the drawing forming part of this specication:

Figure 1 is a View in front elevation of a'bag embodying features of the invention;

Figure 2 is a transverse, sectional view taken through the bag of Figure 1; v

Figure 3 is a viewy similar to that of Figure 2, taken through a modified form of bag; and

Figure a is a front View of a bag similar to that of Figure l, but having the front and back cut smoothly. Y

The bag of Figures 1 and 2 comprises front and back pieces C and C1 of highly transparent material such as Cellophane, It also comprises sides pieces G and G1 of relatively opaque material such as glassine or any ordinary paper. 'Ihe side pieces G and G1 are folded lvl-shape, as clearly seen in Figure 2, and the inner margins of the front and back Webs of these side pieces are adhesivelyunited, respectively, to the mar-- gins of the front piece C, and of the back piece Ci. The bag as illustrated is completed in the usual way by striking off the front and back unequally along toothed members and folding over an end portion 1 and adhesively uniting it to the back of the bag.

The bag of Figure 3 represents a reversal of the parts of the bag of Figures l and 2. Here the bag is composed of a back piece G2 and a front piece G3 of glassine or other suitable paper, and of side pieces C and Caof Cellophane or other suitable transparent material. The side pieces C2 and C3 are folded into ivi-shape as clearly illustrated in'Figure 3. The inner margins of the front and back webs of the side pieces C2 and C3 are interposed between marginal portions of the front and back pieces G3 and G2 and are adhesively united to them. This bag is completed in the manner already described with reference to the bag of Figures 1 and 2.

It will be observed that thebag of Figures 1 and 2 has registering transparent areas in the front and back, and that the bag of Figure 3 has registring transparent areas in opposite sides.

The bag of Figure 4 is like that of Figure 1 in all respects except that the end edges of the front and back are not serrated, but are smoothly out.

The "Cellophane part is strongly resistant to tearing when cut in this manner. The bags of Figures 2 and 3 may be cut in the same manner as the bag of Figure 4.

I have described what I believe to be the best embodiment' of my invention. I do not wish, however, to be conned to the embodiment shown, but what I desire to cover by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims.

I claim:

l. A window bag, comprising opposed front and back pieces and opposed side pieces having gussets formed therein, one pair of opposed pieces being transparent and the other pair of opposed pieces being relatively opaque, each side piece being united to the front and back pieces by longitudinally extending, 'substantially registering, seams, and the inner gusset edge of such side piece being located clear of the seam zone.

2. A window bag, comprising opposed front and back pieces of transparent material, and opposed side piecesof relatively opaque material, having gussets formed therein, each side piece being united to the front and back pieces by longitudinally extending, substantially registering, seams, and the inner gusset edge of such side piece being located clear of the seam zone.

3. A window bag, comprising opposed side pieces of transparent material having gussets formed therein, and opposed front and back pieces of relatively opaque material, each side piece being united to the front and back pieces by longitudinally extending, substantially registering, seams, and the inner gusset edge of such side piece being located clear of the seam zone.

4. A Window bag, comprising opposed iront and back pieces, and opposed gusset pieces, one pair of opposed pieces being transparent and the other pair of opposed pieces being relatively opaque, each gusset piece being united to the front and back pieces by longitudnally extending, substantially registering, seams, and the inner edge of each gusset being located more remote from the longitudinal center of the bag than the adjacent seam zone.
